Current Affairs - Important Days - Discussion

World Asthma Day 2025 will be observed on Tuesday, May 6. Organized annually by the Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA), this day is dedicated to raising global awareness about asthma, a chronic respiratory condition affecting over 250 million people. The 2025 theme, “Make inhaled treatments accessible for all,” underscores the need to improve access to essential inhaled medications, particularly in low- and middle-income countries where asthma-related mortality remains high. The event has grown significantly since its inception in 1998, now engaging over 100 countries in asthma education, advocacy, and efforts to reduce health disparities.
